Parting Shot: Disney's 'Haunted Mansion' Ride Gets An Arkham Asylum Makeover

Inspired by prominent art from Disney's famous Haunted Mansion attraction, artist Abraham Lopez has created "Haunted Arkham Asylum," featuring Batman and other characters in his universe portrayed in "stretch art." The idea is that the images at the top seem perfectly sedate, until they are stretched to reveal a far more sinister situation than previously believed.

'Teen Titans Go!' Premieres Tonight On Cartoon Network

From 2003 to 2006, Teen Titans was one of the most fun and enjoyable translations of the DC Universe to television, but sadly, all good things must end. I learned that from Star Trek, so it has to be true. Sometimes, however, good things manage to make a comeback, and tonight at 7:30 Eastern, Cartoon Network is proving that to be true with the premiere of Teen Titans Go!, a new show that reunites the cast and characters from the original animated series for all-new adventures.
CN was nice enough to send us an advance copy of the first two episodes, and you guys, they are pretty great.

Olly Moss Illustrates Wrap-Gift Posters For 'Thor: The Dark World' [Art]

Artist Olly Moss has been drawing Mondo posters for Marvel's movies for a few years now, so it's no big surprise that Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Thor: The Dark World co-producer Craig Kyle took notice of his work.
They asked Moss to whip up four posters featuring four of the new movie's lead characters -- Thor, Loki, Odin and Heimdall -- to give the cast and crew as wrap presents. See the images of the posters, which he posted on his Tumblr (just in time for today's The Dark World's trailer debut), as well as a picture of the unique form of payment he received for his work, after the jump.

Brandon Auman On Action, Loss And Obsolescence In 'Iron Man: Rise Of Technovore' [Interview]

Earlier in April, Marvel released their latest anime effort starring everyone's favorite billionaire playboy philanthropist: Iron Man: Rise of Technovore. With a story from Brandon Auman that features fan-favorite Marvel heroes like Black Widow, Hawkeye and The Punisher (voiced by The Walking Dead's breakout star Norman Reedus), Rise of Technovore brings us a Tony Stark at his lowest, unsure of his place in the future, and fueled by vengeance over the murder of a close friend - at the hands of a brilliant and enigmatic enemy, Ezekiel Stane.
We spoke with Auman for much more on Technovore, and also got a tease of his other Tony Stark movie hitting shelves this year, "Iron Man and Hulk: Heroes United.

Lucy Knisley's 'Relish' Is A Satisfying Comics Meal

The front cover of Relish: My Life in the Kitchen, the new memoir by Lucy Knisley of French Milk fame, bears a pretty killer blurb from Alison Bechdel, whose years of Dykes to Watch Out For and her breakout hit Fun Home have made her something akin to the grand dame of memoir comics: "Step aside, Joy of Cooking."
Bechdel's blurb may be more braggadocio than brass tacks. Irma S. Rombauer's iconic, seminal cookbook isn't going anywhere, and certainly not because Knisley's comic book is pushing it. That said, however, it's an interesting comparison, because joy is exactly what Relish is about: The joy of cooking, the joy of eating, the joy of spending time with the family and friends one shares those activities with and even the joy of memories, which are are often rooted in those activities, and can be so thoroughly summoned by the tastes and smells of food.

New 'Hush' Catwoman And Harley Quinn Real Action Heroes Coming From Medicom

With Batman and the Joker already duking it out on store shelves, Medicom is turning its Real Action Heroes attention to Jim Lee's Hush style Catwoman and Harley Quinn. We missed the pair in Medicom's Toy Fair 2013 display, but the toymaker has finally released press photos showcasing each of their 1/6 scale sculpts, scads of articulation, swappable hands, real cloth costumes and character-specific accessories. Catwoman's removable whip belt is an especially thoughtful touch, even if it seems to be a separate piece from her weaponized plastic whip. Though the femme fatales won't be available until around January or February of 2014, they're both these Gotham City Sirens are currently available at various preorder sites for around $185-200. You can see more photos of Medicom's upcoming Real Action Heroes Hush Catwoman and Harley Quinn, after the cut.

If You Like Jock's 'Iron Man 3' IMAX Poster, Wait'll You See His Nine Unused Designs [Art]

Yesterday Disney and IMAX debuted prolific comic book and commercial artist Jock's official Iron Man 3 poster. In addition to being just plain more Jock dopeness, it's part of IMAX's concluding "12:01" series, which is handed out to antsy fans hitting up midnight viewings. The poster's streaky design distills a key scene from IM3's second trailer, in which Tony Stark summons what seem to be all 42 of his specialized suits of armor to help he and buddy James Rhodes beat down some foes. This wasn't the only stab Jock took at the theme, though, as seen in the artist's gallery of unused designs. Most of the unused posters are variations on a similar layout, with the Mark 42 armor leading or flying alongside its robros, but one is all about Stark's signature arc reactor. Whether you're a process junkie or just want to see a ton of Iron Man armors, Jock's images are a feast for the eyes. You can see all ten of Jock's IM3 poster designs after the jump.
